Introduction: Regular physical
activity can lead to metabolic changes in adipose and bone tissue. In this study
we hence investigated the effects of interval and continuous aerobic exercise on
resting levels of adiponectin, leptin, osteocalcin and Tartrate resistant acid
phosphatase 5b (TRACP 5b) in obese and overweight females. Materials and
Methods: From among ninety obese and overweight healthy female students, 22
volunteer were randomly selected and investigated. Exercise programs included
treadmill, 3 sessions per week for 8 weeks with interval exercise training,
intensity 85-95% peak heart rate, for 33 minutes and continuous exercise
training, intensity 50-70% peak heart rate, for 41 minutes. Data on blood
samples using ELISA and anthropometrics and body composition were documented
before and after 8 weeks. Results: results indicated that interval
training significantly increased adiponectin (P=0.027) and decreased
osteocalcin (P=0.047). In continuous training fat percent significantly
decreased (P=0.014). Comparing groups, no significant difference was observed
between groups in other factors. Conclusion: High-intensity
interval training without any significant reduction in weight lead to increase in adiponectin and decrease in osteocalcin
indicating that this type of exercise is associated with an increase in bone
formation due to interaction of adiponectin and osteocalcin.
